Presidential primaries a poodle fight Politicans Ignore polls at own risk See page 2 Nationals Greg Mclff Sports Editor UVCC came up two points short in their drive to the NJCAA national championships in Hutchinson, Kansas, losing to College of Southern Idaho Saturday night 65-63. In a battle that went back and forth for 38 minutes, it was the experience and athletic talent of CSI that was the difference in the end. CSI came from an eight point deficit with 12 minutes to go to beat UVCC on their home court in the championship game of the Region 18 tournament. CSI took the lead for good with two minutes to go in the game when Clayton Johnson hit a jumper, for two of his 10 points, to put CSI up 59-57. From there CSI answered each UVCC basket with a basket or foul shot of their own. UVCC had their chances to hold on to the lead but could not do it. "We had a couple of breakdowns," said UVCC Coach Duke Reid. "For some reason we did not play intelligent when the pressure was on." The truth of that was seen in both halfs. Each half UVCC went up by eight or 10 points with under 10 minutes to go and could not hold the lead, in part because of the play of CSI, but also because of mistakes or missed opportunities.The first half saw each team struggle for the first couple of minutes, before UVCC went on a 9-2 run, led by 3-pointers from Craig Wilcox with two and Brian Santiago with one. See BASKET, page 4 Administrative heat increases fees Thomas Epting Editor in Chief Next year's student fees will increase by $4.25 per student per semester, but it could have been worse. It could have been $4.90. Each year, Utah's State Board of Regen ts, the policy making body for higher education, allows the student governments of the nine state colleges and universities to raise student fees a set amount. This year, UVCC's limit was $4.90. UVCC's student government voted to split the $4.25 (all fee amounts are per student per semester) between the administration and the library. After, initially voting a $1.75 increase to cover the bond payments for the addition to the student center, student leaders voted 5-4 to increase that amount to $2.50.

Hover told the studentcouncil that Cook and Warner had convinced him that the increase was necessary.Some council members still questioned the necessity and asked Warner to address the council directly. Prior to the personal visit by Warner, council members heard the administrations request through Student Body President Kenneth C. Patey and through Stan Freeman, tradesscience senator whom the council appointed to study the bond payment requirements.Warner argued that without the $2.50 increase that students would face an increase in book and cafeteria food costs.

In related budget matters, UVCC's theater department, will receive 50 cents per student per. semester in a straight-line budget-item; however, this 50 cents comes from a previous reduction in insurance costs for the school and will not increase student fees. Student government denied the request from Assessment Center Director Robert Loveridge, who promised to extend the operational hours of the classroom testing center and add another check-in station during peak hours if the council would approve an add itional 50 cents per student per semester.

Hatch presented the further concerns of the law society, including failure to register for spring semester which automatically removed Patey from office. Hatch maintained that once Patey was removed council could not reinstate him to an elected office. "Should the law society deny my right to due process? No," said Patey, claiming that council's choice to reinstate him was a fulfillment of his appeal process. Law society members also objected to the changing of Patey's unofficial withdrawal to official withdrawal and the adding of a debate class in which he received an A after registering for it at the end of the semester. "We are not alleging an act of wrongdoing in this instance," said Hatch reading from her opening statement, "What we are establishing here is a pattern of negligence and irre- sponsibility.
